After Chen Ling finished speaking, he looked at Chen Xiaoqi and then said to her, "Little sister, I've got a nephew! He's the treasure of the Chen family!" At this moment, Chen Xiaoqi said to Chen Ling, "Brother, why are you talking nonsense before we've even had a drink?" Chen Xiaoqi thought Chen Ling was being incredibly noisy. "What nonsense are you talking about? Our parents have always wanted a child in our family. Even though your child will have the surname Li, he'll still be a precious treasure in the Chen family," Chen Ling said logically.

However, at this moment, Chen Xiaoqi said again, "Yes, yes, you're right." Chen Xiaoqi didn't want to pay attention to Chen Ling anymore. "Xiaoqi, your brother is right." Chen's father said to Chen Xiaoqi at this time. "Yes, yes, of course I know, Grandma and Grandpa will definitely love him." Chen Xiaoqi said while looking down at her belly.

Chen Xiaoqi was naturally aware of all this; she only argued with Chen Ling because she thought he was being too noisy. "By the way, sister-in-law, when are you planning to have a child?" Chen Xiaoqi suddenly thought that if Chen Ling and Li Lili had a child, they could raise it together. They could also take the child to do some activities together or chat about their experiences raising children.

"Me? I'm not in a rush," Li Lili said calmly to Chen Xiaoqi. After all, Li Lili had many things weighing on her mind. "So, when are you and my brother's wedding planned?" Chen Xiaoqi continued, asking Li Lili. Hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words, Chen's mother quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, look, I completely forgot! I was so happy I didn't even think to ask you!"

"What are you thinking? Shouldn't you discuss it with Xiaoxue's family?" Mrs. Chen thought that wedding matters weren't something the Chen family could decide alone. However, at that moment, Chen Ling spoke up: "Yes, we should discuss it with Ningxue's family. Ningxue and I think it's best to do it as soon as possible. Tomorrow, Ningxue and I will go see Uncle and the others and ask for their opinions."

After saying this, Chen Ling turned to his father and said, "Dad, we still need to trouble you with these things." Then he looked at his mother and said, "Mom, and you too, you've been working hard for a while now." As soon as he finished speaking, his mother said, "Oh, this is a good thing, don't mention working hard."

"Your father and I are already so happy that you and Xiaoxue can get married. Helping you with these preparations is our duty as the older generation. After all, you're our son, aren't you?" After saying this, Mrs. Chen turned to look at Mr. Chen beside her.

Upon hearing Mrs. Chen's words, Mr. Chen immediately agreed, then said to her, "Yes, you're absolutely right." After Mr. Chen finished speaking, Mrs. Chen continued, "If you and Xiaoxue have things to do, then leave the wedding arrangements to your father and me." As she spoke, Mrs. Chen was already thinking about the wedding arrangements.

So Chen Ling said to his mother, "Okay, I understand." They chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at a nearby restaurant. At this point, Chen Ling said, "Let's eat here." They went inside and chose a private room. After sitting down, they started ordering. Chen Ling then said, "This is a restaurant I used to frequent. Since Mom and Dad came, we haven't eaten out much, and we haven't brought you here before. Try their food today; it's very good."

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he heard his mother say, "There's delicious food, but you never mentioned bringing us over to try it." Hearing his mother's complaint, Chen Ling felt wronged. He thought to himself that his mother had always disliked them eating out, believing the food was unsanitary, which was why she hadn't brought his parents over. How could she say he hadn't brought them over? Chen Ling felt deeply aggrieved.

So Chen Ling started shouting, "I'm innocent! Mom and Dad, if you want to go out for a nice meal, isn't it just a matter of saying the word? If you told me, would I not take you out to eat? Okay, okay, it's my fault for not telling you. Well then, eat more today and make up for what we missed."

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he handed the menu to his mother and said, "Here, Mom, take this. You order. Order whatever you want to eat today, don't worry about wasting food. Order whatever you want." His mother immediately replied, "Okay, let's order more dishes today, it's a special occasion for us." She took the menu and began ordering.

Just then, Mrs. Chen started ordering dishes nonstop, one after another. Before she knew it, she had ordered over 20 dishes. At that moment, the waiter, unable to bear it any longer, began to remind them, "Hello, there are so many of you, you probably can't finish all this food, right? Our portions are very generous." Hearing the waiter's words, Chen Ling thought to himself how dedicated and considerate the waiter was.

Chapter 280 Choosing an Auspicious Day

So Chen Ling picked up where the waiter left off and said, "Mom, let's not be so extravagant. This is enough, isn't it?" Chen Ling felt a sense of dread as he recalled his mother's incessant recitation of the menu.

Just then, Mrs. Chen glanced at her rations and said to the waiter, "Okay, that's all for now. We'll see if there's anything else we need. We'll call you back then." The waiter then left.

After a while, Mr. Chen said to Mrs. Chen, "You look really happy today!" It was easy to see that Mrs. Chen was indeed in a good mood, as she had already shown it. So Mrs. Chen smiled first, and then said, "Haha, of course! Let me tell you, Chen Ling and Xiao Xue's wedding is going to be a grand affair."

After speaking, Chen's mother turned to Li Lili and said, "Xiaoxue, if you have any requests for the wedding, just tell me." Before Li Lili could even speak, Chen Xiaoqi complained, "Mom, you weren't in such a hurry when I got married."

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother began to speak, "You know, it's not the same. When did marrying off a daughter-in-law become the same as marrying off a son? When you got married, Li Ran's family was busy, right, Li Ran?" After saying this, Chen's mother turned the attention to Li Ran. Li Ran quickly chimed in, "Yes, usually it's the groom's family that's busier at weddings." Seeing this, Chen Xiaoqi didn't say anything more.

So she said "Oh~" earnestly. At that moment, Chen Ling and Li Lili stopped talking and quietly waited for the food to be served, preparing to eat. After a while of silence at the table, Chen's mother began to speak: "Xiaoqi, you're already showing a lot of pregnancy. Is there anything wrong with your body?" Chen's mother was naturally very worried about her daughter.

Then Chen Xiaoqi said to her mother, "Well, I'm not feeling unwell. I just have occasional back pain, but I read online that these are normal. I'm fine, so don't worry about me. Li Ran's mom is taking care of me at home, so don't worry." After Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, Li Ran also said to Chen's mother, "Yes, Mom, don't worry. My mom is taking care of her at home, so she's fine. You should focus on my brother and sister-in-law's wedding for now, so don't worry about Xiaoqi. I'll take care of her." Li Ran patted Chen Xiaoqi's hand as she spoke.

Just then, seeing this, Mrs. Chen nodded and said nothing more. Soon after, the dishes were served. Mr. Chen began to urge them to eat.

"Wow! This food is really good!" Chen Xiaoqi exclaimed after taking just one bite. Then, Chen's parents and Li Ran also praised the food highly. They all agreed that the food here was indeed delicious.

It was at this moment that they began to eat heartily. It seemed the delicious food had their mouths shut; they didn't say much during the meal. They were completely focused on enjoying the food before them. After a long time, when they seemed to be almost full, they began to talk again. Chen Ling started by saying, "Sure enough, when people are eating, their mouths are busy, and they don't talk so much." Chen Ling's words were unintentional, but Chen Ling's words resonated with the listener.

After hearing this, Chen's mother immediately turned to Chen Ling and said, "Chen Ling, are you talking about me?" Chen Ling was both amused and exasperated by his mother's teasing, and helplessly said to her, "Mom, you're overthinking it. I was just venting." Chen's mother rolled her eyes at Chen Ling. She felt that Chen Ling was talking to her, but she didn't want to argue with him anymore, so she lowered her head and continued eating the food on her plate.

In a short while, they all finished their meal, and then Chen Ling and the others started heading home. They chatted as they walked, and soon arrived back. Then, Li Ran and Chen Xiaoqi said to them, "Mom and Dad, we're going home now."

Then, turning to Chen Ling and Li Lili, they said, "Brother, sister-in-law, we're leaving now." After they finished speaking, they stopped. Chen's mother and father then instructed Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran, "Be careful on the way back." Li Ran and Chen Xiaoqi replied with "Okay," and then prepared to turn around and go back.

However, just as they were about to go back, they heard Chen Ling and Li Lili say, "Aren't you going upstairs to talk a little longer?" Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi replied, "What's the point of going upstairs? We finished talking during dinner, and it's getting late. Let's go home first. We can come back another time when we have time; it's close by anyway." After saying this, Chen Xiaoqi and Li Lili turned and left, and then Chen Ling, Li Lili, and their parents went upstairs.

After they returned home, Chen's parents called Chen Ling and Li Lili to the living room. They then started checking the calendar together to see if there were any auspicious dates for their wedding. At that moment, Chen Ling mentioned a date: the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. Li Lili looked at it and agreed it was a good day for their wedding. So, Chen's parents followed Chen Ling's suggestion and decided to set the wedding date for the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

Just then, Mr. Chen said to them, "The wedding is approaching the end of the year, so it might be quite busy." Chen Ling and Li Lili were naturally aware of this. So Chen Ling said again, "Then we'll have to trouble you and Mom." Chen Ling knew they had many relatives, and with the New Year preparations, it would indeed be quite busy. But in the near future, this was the only date that suited them best.

So, Mr. Chen continued, "We've already chosen the date, but we haven't discussed it with Xiaoxue's family yet. Will Xiaoxue's family have any objections?" Li Lili then said, "Don't worry, they won't." Just then, Chen Ling also began to prepare to say something.

Chapter 281 Conserving Energy and Building Up Strength

At this moment, Chen Ling said, "Tomorrow I will go to the hospital with Li Lili to see them and tell them about these things. Their family doesn't have time, so let's take care of these things. Besides, they are the woman."

Mr. Chen completely agreed with what Chen Ling said. He and Mrs. Chen knew that the Shen family was in a special situation and might not be in the mood to consider these things. They felt they had to be more understanding. After all, they would be family from now on, so Mr. Chen said, "Okay, I understand. Don't worry about these things. Your mother and I will definitely take care of everything for you."

After Mr. Chen finished speaking, Mrs. Chen chimed in, "Yes, yes, your father and I will take care of these things. You and Xiaoxue go ahead and do your work. I'm fine, you're all fine. Just go to the hospital to get checked out more often. Xiaoxue's family doesn't need to worry about these things."

"Just tell us what your requirements are for the wedding." After saying this, Mrs. Chen started preparing to compile a guest list. Just then, she added, "By the way, give us the list of friends you want to invite. We'll write the invitations." It has to be said, Mr. and Mrs. Chen were truly amazing helpers. They helped Chen Ling and Li Lili solve many problems.

Then Chen Ling said, "Okay, I understand. I'll send you the list later." After Chen Ling finished speaking, he glanced at Li Lili again. Then Chen's father said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room first. I'm a little tired today, I'll go back and lie down for a while." At this moment, Chen's mother also left with Chen's father.

At this moment, only Chen Ling and Li Lili were in the living room. Li Lili looked at Chen Ling beside her and then said, "Let's go back to our room." Chen Ling looked at Li Lili, smiled meaningfully, and then took her hand and went back to their room.

After entering the room, Chen Ling locked the door from the inside. Then he said to Li Lili, "Tonight..." Before he could finish speaking, Li Lili interrupted him, saying calmly, "Get some rest early tonight. We have things to do tomorrow; we need to go to the hospital to see my dad and my sister." After saying that, Li Lili went into the bathroom to wash up.

So Chen Ling didn't say anything more and lay down on the bed to read the book by his bedside. Not long after, Li Lili came out and immediately lay down on the bed, saying to Chen Ling, "Go wash up and go to sleep." Seeing this, Chen Ling pouted and silently went to wash up. Li Lili smiled at Chen Ling's expression and then closed her eyes, preparing to sleep. She was indeed quite tired today. She didn't know when Chen Ling came out, but she was already asleep. When Chen Ling came out and saw the sleeping Li Lili, he didn't have any other thoughts and simply lay down on the bed to sleep as well.

As Chen Ling lay down on the bed, he wondered if he was conserving his energy for tomorrow's marriage proposal. While thinking this, he turned to look at Li Lili. He had been hoping to do something with Shen Lingxue today, but Li Lili was already asleep so early?

Chen Ling thought it over in his mind again, then turned to look at Li Lili beside him. He felt utterly helpless, but there was nothing he could do; he could only go to sleep. Men always fall asleep quickly. Before long, Chen Ling was fast asleep and drifting off to sleep. The next day arrived quickly, and before Chen Ling had even woken up, Li Lili had already gone out to prepare breakfast for him.

It turned out that Shen Lingxue wasn't the only one up early; Mr. and Mrs. Chen were also up. Mr. Chen went downstairs to exercise as usual. Mrs. Chen, however, was busy making breakfast in the kitchen. When Mrs. Chen saw Li Lili, Li Lili was already in the kitchen. Mrs. Chen said to Li Lili, "Why are you up so early, Xiaoxue?"

"Mom, I got up to make breakfast for you. I didn't expect you to be up so early too," Li Lili said in surprise. Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Yes, as people get older, they can't sleep anymore. You're different from me. Don't get up so early anymore. Leave these things to me. You should get some rest." Mrs. Chen spoke earnestly to Li Lili. Li Lili nodded and began to help Mrs. Chen make breakfast.

While making breakfast, Chen's mother and Li Lili chatted idly. Chen's mother then asked, "Xiaoxue, how did you and Chen Ling meet?" Li Lili recalled something from many years ago and then replied to Chen's mother, "We were college classmates. Didn't Chen Ling tell you?"

Upon hearing Shen Lingxue's words, Chen's mother chuckled. She thought to herself, "Chen Xiaoqi was the one who told them about her son having a girlfriend. Why would Chen Ling tell her about his relationship with Li Lili?" So, Chen's mother shook her head and said, "I've never heard Chen Ling mention it. He doesn't usually talk to us about these things."

"We weren't around him before, and we only talked about everyday things when we contacted each other." Seeing this, Li Lili didn't ask any more questions, but instead began to tell Chen's mother about him and Chen Ling. She talked for a very long time, almost the entire morning, and still hadn't finished.

Before Li Lili could finish her story with Chen Ling, breakfast was already prepared. Chen's mother said to Li Lili, "Go and wake Chen Ling up for breakfast." Just as Li Lili was about to say "Okay," she heard Chen Ling's voice. So Li Lili said to Chen's mother, "No need to look for him, he's here." After saying that, Li Lili started taking breakfast to the table. At that moment, Chen's father returned home.

So the family sat down to eat breakfast. Then, Mr. Chen said to Chen Ling, "Should your mother and I come with you?" Chen Ling replied, "No need, Xiaoxue and I will go." Then Mr. Chen instructed Chen Ling, "Be sure to observe proper etiquette when you get there." Chen Ling immediately agreed, "Okay, I know."

Chapter 282 Proposing at the Hospital

Soon, Chen Ling and Li Lili finished their meal, and Chen Ling prepared to go to the hospital with Shen Lingxue. Just as Chen Ling and Li Lili were about to leave, Chen's mother reminded them, "Remember to buy some more things." So Chen Ling replied to his mother, "I know all that, don't worry."

So Chen Ling and Li Lili went out. When they got to the supermarket downstairs, they bought a lot of skincare products to take with them. Chen Ling carried the products in one hand and held Li Lili's hand with the other, preparing to go back to the car. Once in the car, Li Lili called Shen's mother. As soon as the call connected, Li Lili said to her mother, "Chen Ling and I are on our way to the hospital, we'll be there soon. Would you like us to bring you anything?"

Upon hearing this, Shen's mother quickly said, "No need, no need, you don't need to bring anything." Li Lili then hung up the phone and set off for the hospital with Chen Ling. Just then, Chen Ling looked at Li Lili and said, "Ningxue, Uncle's health hasn't been very good. We're having our wedding, and I don't know if his health will allow him to attend." Li Lili had been worried about Chen Ling's situation as well; the New Year was almost here, and she hoped nothing bad would happen.

Then Li Lili said to Chen Ling, "I've been worried about this too. Let's ask the doctor later." After Li Lili finished speaking, Chen Ling just hummed in agreement and didn't say anything more. A little while later, Chen Ling's phone rang.

The caller was Liu Yuyang. After Chen Ling answered the phone, Liu Yuyang excitedly asked, "Why aren't you at the company today? So many people on WeChat Moments have questions, why aren't you answering them? Aren't you coming to the company today?" Liu Yuyang asked a lot of questions at once, and Chen Ling didn't know which one to answer first.

Then Chen Ling began to say, "I'm going to the company tomorrow. While I'm gone, you all work hard." After hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang immediately said, "I don't care whether you come or not. I want to ask you when the wedding is scheduled. We're all waiting." As soon as Liu Yuyang finished speaking, before Chen Ling could say anything, a loud voice came from Liu Yuyang's side.

On Liu Yuyang's end, everyone shouted in unison, "Yes!" Chen Ling immediately knew what was going on. It was the company employees making a fuss. But Chen Ling knew this was good news, so he didn't scold them. He simply said to Liu Yuyang, "It's tentatively set for the 26th of the twelfth lunar month." After saying that, Chen Ling hung up the phone. Liu Yuyang wanted to say something more, but it was too late.

Then Liu Yuyang started relaying the message to his colleagues, saying, "The 26th of the twelfth lunar month." Then Li Lili asked Chen Ling, "Are they making a fuss?" Li Lili had overheard some noises. "Yeah, haha," Chen Ling said, laughing again.

Not long after, Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived at the hospital. They went straight to Mr. Shen's ward. "Dad, Mom's not here," Li Lili asked as she entered, not seeing Mr. Shen. "She went to get some water. She should be back soon," Mr. Shen said weakly.

Seeing that Mr. Shen was having difficulty speaking, Li Lili didn't say anything more, just nodded and remained silent. Chen Ling and Li Lili waited for Mrs. Shen to arrive. Soon, Mrs. Shen returned. As soon as she came in and saw them, she immediately said, "You're here so quickly! I thought we'd have to wait a while." After Mrs. Shen finished speaking, Chen Ling said, "We were already on our way when we called." Mrs. Shen nodded quickly upon hearing this.

After Mrs. Shen put down the thermos, she saw Chen Ling glance at Li Lili before immediately stating the purpose of his visit. Chen Ling began, "Auntie, Ningxue and I have already registered our marriage. She told you all, and we're planning to hold our wedding soon." Upon hearing this, Mr. Shen on the bed grinned broadly. Mrs. Shen was naturally overjoyed as well. She said, "Haha, good, good, good. I don't have time to help you with the wedding preparations; you'll have to worry about all that." Mrs. Shen spoke while looking at Mr. Shen.

Mr. Shen kept grinning. Then Chen Ling said, "You don't need to worry, I'll take care of everything. I definitely won't let Ningxue suffer." Chen Ling assured Mr. and Mrs. Shen. Mrs. Shen was finally relieved, thinking that Chen Ling had finally become her son-in-law, which fulfilled one of her wishes.

"Good, good, good. We trust you with everything. Have you chosen a date?" Mrs. Shen asked Chen Ling happily. No sooner had Mrs. Shen finished speaking than Chen Ling replied, "Yes, yes, it's chosen. We'll set it for the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. With the New Year approaching, everyone's busy at home, so we'll hurry up and prepare." Chen Ling's tone was very steady, which reassured Mrs. Shen even more.

“Okay, this is a good date. The divorce proceedings are coming up soon, so you and Ningxue should prepare well. You have a lot to do. If you don’t need to come to the hospital, you don’t need to. The caregiver you found and I are here. There’s not much to do usually.” Mrs. Shen said to Chen Ling while glancing at Li Lili from time to time. Chen Ling quickly agreed, and Li Lili nodded as well.

Just then, Li Lili said to Shen's mother, "Mom, I'm going to see Ninglu. I haven't seen her for several days, and I miss her." Shen's mother nodded and said to Li Lili, "Okay, go ahead." Chen Ling, who was standing nearby, looked at Shen's mother and said, "Then I'll go with Ningxue." Seeing this, Shen's mother quickly said, "Okay, go ahead." So Chen Ling and Li Lili went together to Shen Ninglu's ward.

Shen Ninglu's ward was very close by, and Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived in no time. They saw Li Lili standing outside the ward, looking inside.

Chapter 283 A Touch of Emotion

Li Lili stood outside the door, watching Shen Ninglu. She wondered when Shen Ninglu would finally recover. She hoped her sister could attend her wedding like a normal person. Similarly, she also longed to see Shen Ninglu as a bride.

Li Lili stood outside the door, staring blankly at Shen Ninglu for a long, long time. It wasn't until Chen Ling patted Shen Lingxue on the shoulder and said to Li Lili, "It's alright, everything will be alright," that Li Lili snapped out of her daze and went into Shen Ninglu's hospital room.

Just then, Shen Ninglu sat quietly on the edge of her bed, playing with her hair. When she saw Li Lili and Chen Ling enter, she looked up, staring intently at Li Lili. Seeing this, Li Lili said to Shen Ninglu, "Ninglu, your sister is getting married soon. Please come to my wedding, okay? Look, this is your brother-in-law." Li Lili spoke while taking Chen Ling's hand.

Shen Ninglu noticed their clasped hands and reached out her own. This gesture left Li Lili, standing nearby, both amused and exasperated. Li Lili released Chen Ling's hand and took Shen Ninglu's, saying earnestly, "Ninglu, you need to get better soon." Li Lili had thought about these words countless times; she had fantasized countless times that every time she saw Shen Ninglu, Shen Ninglu would smile at her and obediently call her "sister."

But for Shen Ninglu, Li Lili's wish was such a luxury! Li Lili held Shen Ninglu's hand, saying nothing more, just quietly watching her. After a long while, Chen Ling said to Li Lili, "It's about time, we should go back." Li Lili then looked down at the time; it was indeed very late, so she prepared to go home with Chen Ling.

When Chen Ling and Li Lili were about to leave, they didn't go back to Shen's father's ward. Li Lili sent a message to Shen's mother saying that they were going back, and then she and Chen Ling prepared to leave. After leaving the hospital, Chen Ling asked Li Lili if she was in a bad mood today, because he noticed that Li Lili seemed thoughtful when she was in Shen Ninglu's ward.

Then Li Lili began to speak, "Seeing Ninglu always makes me feel uncomfortable. She's so young, at the perfect age, with so much to do, yet she's ended up like this. It breaks my heart." Chen Ling listened quietly to Li Lili, then held her hand, indicating that he was still by her side. Chen Ling had done all he could; now he just wanted Li Lili to know she wasn't alone. Li Lili turned to look at Chen Ling and said softly, "I'm fine. You focus on driving."

They quickly returned to Chen Ling's home. When Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived, Chen's mother had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them. After entering the house, Chen Ling and Li Lili quickly washed their hands and prepared to eat.

During the meal, Chen's mother began asking Chen Ling and Li Lili about some details of their wedding. She started by asking, "Chen Ling, when are you and Ning Xue planning to take your wedding photos? And when are you planning to try on the wedding dresses?" Chen Ling looked at his mother and then smiled.

Then he said, "I've already prepared the wedding dress. As for the wedding photos, Ningxue is free these few days, so let's go take them." After speaking to his mother, Chen Ling turned to Li Lili and asked, "Ningxue, when are you free? Let's go take some photos. One day should be enough, right?" Li Lili replied, "Anytime is fine. You decide."

So Chen Ling said again, "In that case, let's go tomorrow. I'll contact the photography studio later." Li Lili didn't say anything more after hearing Chen Ling's words. However, at this moment, Chen's mother, who was standing nearby, started gossiping. She asked Chen Ling, "When did you prepare your wedding dress? I've never heard you mention it." After hearing his mother's question, Chen Ling glanced at Li Lili beside him and then said, "I started preparing when she accompanied Xiao Qi to try on wedding dresses."

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili smiled. She thought to herself, "So Chen Ling had already put marriage in his heart all along!" This touched her deeply. Facing Chen Ling, Li Lili truly didn't know what to say. She recalled how she had been incredibly envious of Chen Xiaoqi when she accompanied her to try on wedding dresses, and how Chen Xiaoqi had called Chen Ling to tell him she missed him. Chen Ling had immediately rushed over to see her. Thinking of these memories, a smile crept onto Li Lili's face.

"Where is Chen Ling's wedding dress?" Chen's mother asked again after hearing Chen Ling's words. Chen Ling replied, "I found a famous designer to design the wedding dress, and I've kept it at the bridal shop. Ningxue and I will try it on tomorrow." After Chen Ling finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Lili, who nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing this, Chen's mother didn't say anything more. She stopped worrying about the wedding dress and started discussing the wedding style with Chen Ling and his wife. She showed them many pictures on her phone and then asked them which style they preferred. After discussing it, Chen Ling and Li Lili decided to go with a Western-style wedding.

“Okay, now that your mother and I know this, we'll know what to do. We'll discuss the rest with the hotel staff. You and Xiaoxue can focus on your own things—try on wedding dresses, take wedding photos, and so on.” Mr. Chen, who hadn't spoken until now, began to offer his opinion. “Okay, thank you, Mom and Dad!” Chen Ling quickly replied after hearing his father's words.

Dinner passed quickly. After finishing their meal, Chen Ling and Li Lili returned to their room.

Chapter 284 A Perfect Match

Upon entering the room, Chen Ling immediately locked the door, then pulled Li Lili's arm and lay down on the bed. Li Lili looked at Chen Ling innocently and said, "What are you doing?" Hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling felt an even stronger tingling sensation. Then, Chen Ling whispered in Li Lili's ear, "Hmm, what do you think?" After saying this, Chen Ling immediately kissed Li Lili. After a long while, Li Lili, panting, said to Chen Ling, "It's so hot." Chen Ling looked at Li Lili and found her very cute.

So he suddenly threw off the covers. Then he hid under the covers again and started doing some fun things. Soon, the next day arrived, and Chen Ling and Li Lili got up early to prepare for their wedding photos. However, just then, Liu Yuyang called and said, "Are you going to the company today?" When Chen Ling saw Liu Yuyang's call, he knew Liu Yuyang would ask this, so he said helplessly to Liu Yuyang, "This is the second time you've asked me."

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang immediately slapped his forehead. He then said, "Look at my memory, how could I forget?" After saying that, Liu Yuyang continued, "So you're not coming today, are you?" Chen Ling immediately asked, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Liu Yuyang then said, "It's about the shopping mall project. It's going to be topped out today. That'll be it before the New Year. It's almost the New Year, and we'll be on holiday soon, so construction won't stop. Great news for the topping-out ceremony! Aren't you coming today?" "Ah, um, I guess I won't be coming!" Chen Ling said, glancing at Li Lili.

"Alright then, if you're not coming, you're not coming. I know you're busy, fine, I'll keep an eye on things." Liu Yuyang muttered to himself, then hung up the phone. "If there's something going on at the company, we can film another day." Li Lili looked at Chen Ling and said. "It's fine, let's film today." Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili and said. So the two of them went out to have breakfast. In the past few days, Li Lili had indeed listened to Chen's mother and hadn't gotten up to make breakfast.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother saw Li Lili and Chen Ling coming out and immediately said, "Come here, come here, it's time to eat."

"Okay." Chen Ling said as he and Li Lili walked towards the dining table. At this time, Chen's mother and father were already seated at the table. Chen's father then said, "Are you going over after dinner? Your mother and I are going to check out the hotel later."

"Yes, we've scheduled filming for nine o'clock. No outdoor shooting; it's too cold now," Chen Ling said casually. Then Li Lili asked, "Mom and Dad, be careful on the road." "We're just going to the hotel to check things out; nothing's wrong," Chen's mother replied. Chen's parents planned to check on the hotel later and discuss some specific details with them.

Just then, Chen's parents said again, "Don't worry about these things, let's take the wedding photos first. Your mother and I will handle these." "Okay, thank you, Mom and Dad," Chen Ling and Li Lili replied. Then Chen Ling asked, "Mom and Dad, how are you getting there?" Chen Ling thought that the wedding shop and the hotel weren't on the same route, so he asked. "We'll take a taxi," Chen's father said casually. Chen Ling, who was standing nearby, didn't say anything more after hearing this.

A short while later, Chen Ling and Li Lili finished their meal and prepared to leave. Once in the car, Li Lili asked, "I didn't even ask you about the wedding dress yesterday! How come you're all ready?" Chen Ling laughed as soon as she finished speaking and began to explain, "That day you suddenly called me and said you missed me. I knew something must have happened to you, but thinking about it carefully, nothing happened that day except for accompanying Xiao Qi to try on wedding dresses. So I knew what was going on. Then I found a designer and had a wedding dress specially made for you. I told you I wanted to give you an unforgettable wedding."

After Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Lili felt even warmer inside. She then said, "Thank you, Chen Ling." Li Lili had been saying this to Chen Ling very frequently lately because she felt that being with Chen Ling was truly a very happy thing.

"Alright, don't thank me. There's nothing to thank me for," Chen Ling said, then turned and smiled at Li Lili. Li Lili, standing beside him, couldn't help but smile too. Soon, they arrived at the bridal shop. Chen Ling found a clerk, retrieved the wedding dress he had kept, and quickly had Li Lili go in to change. He was eager to see Li Lili in the dress.
